Endringer for v24.0.3 - v25.0

  • New Features
  • Added the ability to capture Vulkan-based games with game capture. Big thanks to Ubisoft Montreal for submitting this feature! [Littlematth/jpark37/Jim]
  • Added a new capture method to window capture which allows capturing browsers, browser-based windows, and Microsoft Store (UWP) programs [jpark37]
  • By default, it will use "Automatic", which will use the normal method on most windows, and the new method on browsers, browser-based windows, and Microsoft Store (UWP) programs

  • You can choose which capture method to use in window capture properties
  • Added advanced scene collection importing (on the menu bar, Scene Collection -> Import) which allows you to import from other common streaming programs [Dillon]
  • Added Media source hotkeys to allow control of playback (stop/pause/play/restart) [cg2121]
  • For now, these are just hotkeys. User interface for this is also planned for future updates
  • Added the ability to drag and drop URLs to create browser sources (after displaying a confirmation prompt to ensure it was by intention) [WizardCM]
  • Developers can add an embed to their web pages that let them pre-specify parameters that automatically get set in the source when it's dragged into OBS. See this link for more details: https://obsproject.com/tools/browser-drag-and-drop

  • Added a "Fade to Black" option for quick transitions in studio mode [cg2121]
  • Added string specifiers to the Filename Formatting option in advanced settings which allows you to specify certain settings such as resolution and FPS to recording filenames [exeldro]
  • Added a hotkey to reset the stats window/panel [cg2121]
  • Added help icons when an property has a tooltip associated with it [WizardCM]
  • Added monitor names in monitor selection context menus [WizardCM]
  • Video settings now shows aspect ratio of canvas and output resolutions [cg2121]

  • Increased default size of text in text sources [cg2121]
  • Increased the number of files you can open with the image slideshow at once [Jim]
  • Added various minor performance improvements [jpark37]
  • The mask filter will now reload the mask automatically if the mask file has been modified [omkelderman]
  • The browser source now uses a monospace font for the custom CSS property [WizardCM]
  • Redesigned Decklink output UI by combining the start and stop buttons and highlighting them when the output is active. [cg2121]
  • Removed the older deprecated NVENC encoder in advanced output mode to prevent confusion. You will now only see "NVENC (new)" (which we will eventually rename back to just "NVENC"). Rescaling is now supported on it (automatically falls back to the older implementation internally)

Endringer for v24.0.1 - v24.0.3

  • Fixed a startup crash on the 32bit version of OBS
  • Fixed an issue where audio monitoring on Windows would have a bit of unintended latency introduced by 24.0.2
  • Changes
  • Hardware accelerated decoding on the media source is now disabled by default rather than enabled by default. Some users use a ridiculous number of media sources, and turning on hardware accelerated decoding for every single one of them could cause some stability issues.
  • When running OBS as administrator, games will now be much less likely to cause lag to the video of OBS (we will eventually get this improvement working without requiring administrator, currently this does not work unless OBS is running as administrator)
  • Fixed an issue where media keys on your keyboard could trigger video/audio to stop/start playing in browser sources
  • Fixed an issue where part of the OBS output would be green when using OBS from a VM
  • Fixed an issue where stingers could sometimes cut off prematurely before they were finished
  • Fixed a freeze that could happen when using NVENC and changing the bitrate while in use while lookahead was enabled
  • Fixed a bug where OBS could sometimes stop recording due to lack of disk space despite having plenty of disk space
  • Improved the playback accuracy of media sources and stingers (this was the same issue that caused stingers to sometimes play back a bit erratically)



Endringer for v24.0 - v24.0.1

  • Browser sources will now have their pre-24.0 audio behavior by default; to use OBS to control the browser source audio, users must now use the "Control Audio via OBS" option in the browser source properties. This change was made as a safety precaution because it changed user configurations compared with how the browser audio used to function, which confused some users.
  • Fixed an issue where certain cameras (particularly C920 cameras) would output with a lot of delay depending on the drivers installed
  • Fixed a crash on startup
  • Fixed a crash that would happen when closing the Mixer chat window



Endringer for v23.2.1 - v24.0

  • New Features
  • Added the ability to pause while recording to allow seamless on-the-fly removal of video segments. This can only be used when not sharing an encoder with the stream. [Jim]
  • Added an option to automatically adjust bitrate when congestion occurs to advanced settings, which is an alternative to dropping frames (available in advanced settings). Note that this currently only works with RTMP, and severe congestion may cause increased delay to viewers. [Jim/pkv]
  • Added the ability to select multiple sources on the preview by box selection [Dillon]
  • Added the ability to create custom browser docks in the View -> Docks menu. This allows you to open extra dockable webpages whenever OBS opens [Jim]
  • Browser sources can now have their volume adjusted via the audio mixer, or have filters applied to them. Additionally, you can now change whether the browser source outputs to speakers or to stream only via the audio monitoring settings in advanced audio properties. [Osiris/pkv/Jim]
  • Added a script to pause recording when a specific scene is active [cg2121]
  • Added a "Hotkey Focus Behavior" option to advanced settings, which allows you to set whether hotkeys are disabled depending on whether you have the main window in focus or not [jb-alvarado/Jim]
  • Added an option to general settings to allow users to confirm when clicking the "Stop Recording" button [glikely]
  • Added channels widget for restream.io service integration [SoftwareArchitector]

  • Added an "Enable Preview" button to the main window when the preview is disabled [cg2121]
  • Added (or rather fixed) hardware acceleration support for decoding media files when using the media source where applicable [Jim]
  • Tweaks/Fixes
  • Updated all dependencies on Windows (such as FFmpeg, x264, CEF) to their latest versions. Due to x264 being updated, there are various performance improvements for those using x264 for video encoding [Jim]
  • Made a number of optimizations and performance improvements [jpark37]
  • Made a number of performance improvements to QSV [brittneysclark]
  • Changed default recording format to mkv instead of flv [WizardCM]
  • Recording now automatically stop if there is less than 50 megabytes left of disk space available [cg2121]
  • Fixed a number of issues with Linux window capture [kkartaltepe]
  • Fixed the tray icon showing up on startup even when it was turned off [Jim]
  • Fixed a bug where encoders could lock up when an encode call fails [Jim]
  • Fixed an issue where projectors would have a gray background rather than a black background [Jim]
  • Fixed a bug where secondary Twitch/Mixer browser panels would stop appearing [Jim]
  • Fixed a freeze that could happen under rare circumstances when shutting down [Jim]

  • Added the ability to preview transitions in the properties of a transition via a new Preview button
  • Added an estimate to remaining available recording time according to available disk space
  • Added luma key video effect filter
  • Added the ability to set the exact desired dB volume value of sources in the advanced audio properties, replacing the percentage value

  • Reverted 23.0 changes to slideshow, and instead introduced a 250 megabyte memory limit to image slideshow so people can't accidentally exhaust their memory by loading countless images from a folder. This revert fixes an issue where large image counts would cause rendering lag when switching images.
  • On Linux, the tray now uses icons from the system theme
  • Fixed a bug when upmixing from mono to stereo would cause the volume to be quieter
  • Fixed a bug where NVENC wouldn't show up for the NVIDIA Quadro P5000
  • Fixed another case where the last frame of an NVENC stream/recording could show up as the first frame in a subsequent stream/recording in the same running session
  • Fixed another case where output could be green for certain devices
  • Fixed a crash that could happen if you clicked settings too quickly after starting up with streaming account integration, or if you exit the program too quickly



Endringer for v23.0.1 - v23.0.2

  • Added a warning when closing dock windows
  • Fixed a bug where if the video drivers crashed or were reinstalled while running OBS for whatever reason, output would turn green
  • Fixed a bug where the last frame of the previous stream/recording could show up as the first frame of the next stream/recording if on the same running session
  • Fixed QSV not functioning correctly for some users
  • Fixed an issue where Python scripting stopped working for 23.0.1
  • Fixed a memory leak when reloading scripts
  • Fixed a bug where your profile could reset if you started the program for the first time, changed the language, and then restarted the program
  • Made a workaround for a system issue where certain older video cards and graphics drivers would show green video with banding artifacts



Endringer for v22.0.2 - v23.0.1

  • Fixed a program freeze that could happen when the Logitech G HUB plugin is installed
  • Fixed a bug where if Mixer auth fails, it could reload the login dialog numerous times
  • Fixed a bug where users with very old graphics adapters would have green video output
  • Fixed a bug where a browser widget could start up blank when high-DPI scaling is enabled
  • Auto-remux no longer deletes the old file, just as a safety precaution
  • OBS Studio 23.0
  • You can now support OBS development on Patreon and Open Collective. Read our announcement blog post for more details.
  • Service Integration (Windows)
  • Added the ability to optionally connect your account to Twitch or Mixer from within OBS (with more services in the works). When your account is connected, you do not have to enter in a stream key, and gain access to special features related to that service, such as a chat panel or stream configuration/statistics panels.
  • Twitch integration: Added Twitch chat panel (with BTTV/FFZ support), the Twitch "Stream Information" dashboard panel allowing you to change your stream title/game/etc from within OBS, and the Twitch "Stream Stats" dashboard panel which shows statistics such as viewer count (Stream Stats is hidden by default, you can unhide it in the View menu -> Docks submenu).
  • Mixer integration: Added Mixer chat panel
  • Panels such as chat panels used with services are dockable; you can dock/undock the windows to customize how you want them to be placed when using OBS.
  • YouTube, Facebook, and more services are still in the works; more to come soon.
  • Service integration is currently only available on Windows for now, though Linux and Mac support is planned for a later date.
  • NVENC and Encoding Improvements (Windows)
  • A new implementation of NVENC has been added which has improved performance, reducing system and resource impact. To enable, go to Settings, Output Tab, and in Encoder select Hardware (NVENC) New. Note that the new implementation is not available on Windows 7 due to limitations in the operating system; the old implementation will be used instead in that case.
  • Added new features to the new NVENC implementation:
  • Psycho-visual Tuning: Enables encoder settings that optimize the use of bitrate for increased perceived visual quality, especially in situations with high motion, at the cost of increased GPU utilization. This increases subjective image quality. Qualitative measurements like PSNR may score lower but video may appear better to human viewers.
  • Look-ahead: Enables dynamic B-frames. If disabled, the encoder will always use the number of B-frames specified in the 'Max B-frames' setting. If enabled, it will increase visual quality by only using however many B-frames are necessary, up to the maximum, at the cost of increased GPU utilization.
  • General Changes
  • Added a Limiter audio filter.
  • Added an Expander audio filter.
  • Added VAAPI video encoder on Linux.

  • Added multi-track audio support to FFmpeg output in advanced output settings.
  • Added an About dialog to the Help menu.
  • Added a filter (search) option to the Hotkeys section of the settings window.
  • Added a fourth Mic/Auxiliary audio option in Audio settings.
  • Added stereo balancing (panning) to the Advanced Audio Properties dialog.
  • Added an option to change the OBS base/output resolution to the size of a source in the right-click context menu of the source. Only works when no outputs are active.
  • Added a "deactivate when not showing" option to the Decklink source.
  • Added an Invert Polarity audio filter.
  • Added an F2 shortcut to rename sources or scenes when selected.
  • Added VLC source support to the Instant Replay script.
  • Added a "What's New" dialog that may pop up on startup in the case of announcements or important news
  • Fixed a bug where screen reader tools for the visually impaired would not read out the items in the source list box in the main window when selected.
  • Fixed a bug where fullscreen projectors would always be on top despite that setting being unchecked.
  • Fixed an issue on windows where window capture would use an abnormal amount of CPU usage when its target window was not available
  • Fixed a number of race conditions and minor memory leaks, improving overall program stability.
  • When your mouse cursor is hovering over a source in the preview or in the source list, a light rectangle will show up around it indicating that it can be selected.
  • When a source is dragged outside of the preview area, there is a new visualization for the unseen area of that source while selected.
  • Simplified and improved the user experience of the "Stream" page of both the settings and auto-configuration windows.
  • The source selection rectangle has been improved.
  • The slideshow source now only loads a maximum of 15 images at a time, and dynamically loads images beyond that count as they cycle. This was done to prevent people who put countless files in the slideshow source from running out of memory.
  • When in studio mode, you can no longer transition if you're already in the middle of a transition.
  • Removed a number of internal/uncapturable Microsoft program windows from the game/window capture window lists.
  • Increased the Instant Replay script retry interval.

Endringer for v21.1 - v22.0.1

  • Fixed a bug where the browser source wouldn't read local files properly
  • 22.0 General Changes
  • Major improvements to the browser source:
  • Added hardware acceleration to the browser source on Windows for greatly improved performance, reduced resources, and allowing advanced rendering functionality such as WebGL. This reduces CPU usage, reduces RAM usage, and even reduces GPU usage. This option is enabled by default; it can be disabled in the advanced section of settings if needed if there are any unexpected issues.
  • Updated to Chromium version 68
  • Refactored the entire plugin and pruned approximately 13,000 lines of code (very satisfying for me in particular)
  • The browser source now has accurate frame synchronization on Windows
  • Fixed all memory leaks of the browser source
  • Added the ability to use web browsers as widgets (which isn't currently exposed much, but will allow a lot more custom functionality later)
  • Added source grouping, allowing the ability to group multiple sources together as a single transformable group:
  • To add a group, you can either select a few sources and then right-click and choose "Group Selected Items", or you can create an empty group in the Add menu
  • You can seamlessly drag and drop items in and out of groups
  • You can ungroup a group without affecting the group in other scenes by right-clicking the group and choosing "Ungroup"
  • Groups show their list of sources as a sub-list within the main scene list, which can be collapsed and hidden if desired
  • Groups can be referenced (shared) between multiple scenes like any other source
  • Groups can have their own effect filters applied to them

  • It is now possible to use more than one Intel QSV encoder at once (#1341)
  • It is now possible to use alt-cropping even on sources that are set to a bounding box transform. This fixes the issue where, for example, alt-cropping would not work after you pressed Ctrl-F on a source. Note that in that case, the rectangle's size will not change, but the contents will realign to the rectangle. (01ac60c)
  • Windowed projectors are now saved and loaded on shutdown/startup (#1195)
  • Audio sources within the mixer now always displayed alphabetically (#1242)
  • Significantly reduced GPU usage when the program is idle (I.E. when the program is not streaming or recording) (45b5291)
  • Added a confirmation dialog when the user has not added video sources to any scenes, warning them that they are about to stream a blank screen. This ensures that new users do not inadvertently stream without at least first adding some sources. (310c98e)
  • The program will now default to the NVIDIA GPU when on laptops that have both NVIDIA and Intel integrated adapters. This can still be overridden in the NVIDIA control panel if desired
  • 22.0 Bug Fixes
  • Fixed a bug where videos recorded with certain formats would report that they were 1000 FPS in their metadata when they actually weren't (1f592d1)

  • Fixed a bug where stream output would stop if a stinger transition had a very late transition point assigned to it (an invalid floating point calculation would be put in to the audio data, which would in turn cause the audio encoder to fail and stop encoding, and thus stream output to stop) (0bd2e23)
  • Fixed a bug on macOS where VLC would not be found for the VLC source despite VLC being installed (ec366cf)
  • Fixed a bug on macOS where audio monitoring devices would not show up correctly, and fixed a few minor issues with audio monitoring on macOS (#1318, #1345)

  • Fixed a bug where keyboard interaction didn't work on macOS browser source with Release Candidate 1
  • Fixed a bug where hotkeys for start streaming and stop streaming would disappear when going in/out of studio mode
  • Fixed a bug where using "Auto" for the twitch server would cause it to select an incorrect server
  • Fixed a bug where moving sources that were flipped in to a group would cause them to unflip and displace their position. Moving sources in and out of groups should now preserve their flip correctly.
  • Fixed a bug where you could not use reset transform, flip horizontal/vertical, rotate, center, fit to screen, stretch to screen, or edit transform on group sub-items
  • Fixed a bug where group sub-items would not snap correctly
  • Fixed a bug where it was not possible to select the handles of group sub-items that were in a group that had its transform scaled down
  • Fixed a hang when using multiview and a scene had "show in multiview" disabled by the user
  • General Changes

Endringer for v21.0.1 - v21.1

  • General Changes
  • Updated the Browser source to Chromium 63. This includes many important and critical updates to the Browser backend.
  • The new Chromium build for the browser source now supports APNG (animated PNG) image files.
  • Fixed a few bugs and a potential crash on shutdown with the browser source, with more fixes and improvements to come in coming updates.
  • Fixed a bug where the bit icons in certain donation alerts didn't load properly (fixed with the Chromium update for the browser source).
  • Dockable windows can now be nested.
  • Updated the program to use the latest Microsoft development toolchain (Visual Studio 2017) for the Windows version.
  • Changed log file uploading to hastebin (for now) instead of anonymous github gists due to github removing anonymous gist support.
  • Fixed an issue where the AMD encoder wouldn't show up for some people since 21.0.
  • Bug Fixes
  • Fixed a bug where you could import a scene collection with an already-existing name.
  • Fixed an issue where a spontaneous rare audio glitch could happen when encoding audio on Windows. This was caused by a Microsoft audio encoder library which was used by default on Windows at bitrates between 96 and 192 kilobits per second; this library has now been replaced.
  • Fixed a potential crash on startup.
  • Fixed a few scripting-related crashes.
  • Fixed a bug where setting a blank replay buffer prefix would reset to the default prefix when the program was restarted.
  • Fixed a bug where the slideshow source would get stuck on the last image is the slideshow image list was cleared.
  • Selection rectangles are no longer drawn for audio-only sources.



Endringer for v20.1.3 - v21.0.1

  • 21.0.1 Hotfix
  • Fixed a crash with the stinger transition.
  • Fixed a bug where Hauppauge and Live Gamer Portable devices were not outputting audio/video.
  • Fixed a lock on startup that could occur depending on how audio ducking was configured.
  • Scripting
  • Added Luajit/Python3 scripting support. Scripting can be accessed via the "Tools" menu -> "Scripts".
  • Lua is supported via Luajit, which comes with the program. Lua is recommended for high performance scripts, automation, and sources.
  • Python is available if access to its convenient libraries is desired. On windows, to use Python, Python version 3.6 must be installed separately ("x86-64" version if 64bit OBS Studio, "x86" version if 32bit OBS Studio), and the Python 3.6 install path must be configured in the Python settings tab.
  • Scripting documentation can be found in the developer documentation: https://obsproject.com/docs/scripting.html
  • Added an example Lua script: An "Analog Clock" source which draws an analog clock (added like any other source when the script is active)
  • Added an example Lua script: A "Countdown Timer" script which sets the text of a text source to a countdown timer which counts down when that text source is displayed on stream.
  • Added an example Lua script: An "Instant Replay" script which automatically save a replay if there's an active replay buffer, and then plays back that replay in a specified media source after that replay has saved.
  • Added an example Python script: A "URL Text" script which sets the text of a specified text source to the text downloaded from a specified URL every specified interval.
  • New Audio Features
  • Added sidechain/ducking support to the compressor filter. This allows the ability to lower the audio level of an audio source based upon how loud another source is. For example, to apply microphone ducking to a desktop audio source, add a compressor filter to the desktop audio source, then select the microphone audio source in the "Sidechain/Ducking Source" property.
  • Added surround sound audio output support, which allows outputting 2.1, 4.0, 4.1, 5.1, and 7.1 audio to stream/recording. (When using this feature, please also make sure to increase your audio bitrate to support all the channels in output settings. Although some services like Twitch support it, note that certain services such as YouTube may not fully support surround sound streaming, and may not downmix them correctly for stereo viewers)
  • Added new audio meters to allow the ability to see the audio levels of each audio channel of that source. This allows the ability to know if there are any issues with a specific audio channel (e.g. if just the left or right audio channel is somehow low or muted).
  • Changed audio meters to behave like peak programme meters. This will make it easier to see if your audio is clipping and set your audio levels correctly. For more information, see: https://obsproject.com/wiki/Understanding-The-Mixer
  • Added an "Audio Meter Decay Rate" option in audio settings to allow selecting a specific delay rate (fast, medium, slow) for the audio meters if desired.
  • Added the ability to rename audio sources via right-clicking them in the audio mixer, including desktop and microphone audio capture sources added via audio settings.
  • New Production and Studio Mode Features
  • Added a "Multiview" projector (accessible via the View menu), which allows the ability to view the preview/program and up to 8 scenes at the same time. Scenes in the Multiview can be clicked to change the scene (or the preview scene in studio mode). You can blacklist certain scenes from displaying in the multi-view by right-clicking the scene in the scenes list and unchecking "Show in Multiview". You can also change the Multiview's layout style in general settings.
  • Added an option in general settings that allows you to transition to a scene in studio mode simply by double-clicking on it. This also applies to the multiview projector.
  • Added separate projectors for both preview and program views in studio mode.
  • Added a portrait/vertical layout option for studio mode in general settings which makes the preview/program views vertical relative to each other instead of horizontal
  • Added per-scene transition overriding, which allows you to select a specific transition to use for a specific scene. To use this feature, right-click on the scene in the scene list, and select the transition/duration via the right-click context menu. (This override does not apply to studio mode quick transitions)
  • Developer Documentation
  • Spent about a week or so and finally wrote full developer API documentation/reference (useful for both native and script developers), which can be found here: https://obsproject.com/docs
  • Other General Changes and Fixes
  • Added a new program theme: Acri.
  • Changed the default program theme to dark mode for new users.
  • Changed the text of "Multi-adapter Compatibility" in game capture to "SLI/Crossfire Capture Mode (Slow)". This was changed because the wording "Multi-adapter Compatibility" was a bit vague, and users are not typically aware of the potential performance impact when using the option.
  • Optimized the preview pane and reduced GPU usage by 2-8% depending on how many sources were in the preview.
  • The streaming/recording buttons in the main window now highlight while streaming/recording.

Endringer for v18.0.2 - v19.0

  • General Changes:
  • Added an auto-configuration wizard to the tools menu and on first-time use, which will attempt to automatically test and configure video/encoding/streaming settings based upon your system and internet connection. This wizard is currently in beta and may be subject to change, feedback is appreciated here: https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/obs-studio-19-0-0-auto-configure-feedback-megathread.68509/
  • Added a stats dialog to the view menu (with the option to show it on start it up in general settings). The stats dialog shows advanced statistics, such as: average frame rendering time, frames lost due to encoding/rendering/network lag, HDD space left in recording location, and how much data has been output total.
  • Added a "Render Delay" filter that allows delaying non-async video sources such as display capture or window capture. Note this is only meant for minor sync adjustments (e.g. syncing your screen capture to a webcam), and because the delayed frames are stored on very limited VRAM, the allowable maximum delay is 500 milliseconds (which is 250 megabytes of VRAM on a 1080p 60 FPS source)

  • Fixed an issue where the blackmagic source can start up or spontaneously go out of sync
  • Fixed dragging and dropping text files to create a text source on non-windows systems
  • Fixed a bug where devices outputting NV12 (e.g. Logitech BRIO cams) would have distorted colors

  • Fixed a crash when using QSV to encode
  • Fixed a bug where log files wouldn't be created when the current windows user had unicode characters in the name
  • Fixed an issue with the AMD encoder which would make it difficult to seek on certain file types

  • Linux Changes:
  • Added the auto scene switcher to linux
  • Fixed a potential crash in the settings dialog
  • Mac Changes:
  • Fixed an issue where you would not always be able to select all available fonts in the text source



Endringer for v18.0.1 - v18.0.2

  • The program will no longer fail to start if you use command line parameters that aren't specific to OBS itself (i.e. command line parameters specific to the browser plugin)
  • Sync offset will now work with audio monitoring on Windows when video is also present on that source
